Now this might have been done before - Time to fess up.
How many bugs, Kombis and Type 3's you got. Fess up.
I do remember hearing (urban myth perhaps) that one guy had about 10 - of which his wife only knew about 2. They were stashed all over the place.

BTW I only have 1 (that my wife knows about) 😂

Smile - It confuses people😀

I can count to 4 in types, and need my socks off to know how many 😂
There's no such thing as too many, and as far as keeping them from others, the majority I have would be Kia's by now if I didn't save them.
